Warning to the runaway wife
José’s wife Sanmao, one day when her husband went fishing, suddenly missed her long-lost family
So she packed her luggage on her own initiative and wanted to go home to meet her parents. At the same time, prepare to give her husband an unexpected surprise and vacation. When she started to flee, her husband drove a car and chased her out as if he had just woken up from a dream. At that time, Sanmao was determined to leave, carrying the small baggage and refusing to look back. Jose burst into tears at the airport, and Sanmao touched his beard, smiled slightly, climbed onto the big iron bird, and flew back to his hometown thousands of miles away. Dealing with such a wife, Jose was certainly ashamed to publish a warning in the newspaper. With his personality, there is no need to pursue it further. Let her run away
It would be a pleasure for the husband. But when I think about it, the dishes at home are piled up like a mountain
The sheets and pillows are not washed and changed, and Sanmao's nagging is annoying on weekdays. Today, the building is empty and the lights are dim
< p>, there was deathly silence, and I felt lost. Thinking about it, Sanmao is a character that would be a lot of trouble to have, but without him, it feels like he is missing a rib. He can't even walk, sit or lie down. I can't tell you how sad he is.Less than two days after Sanmao entered her parents' home, Jose's letter with colorful stamps was quietly lurking in her mailbox.
"Hey, the letter warning the runaway wife came so quickly!" Sanmao wanted to tear it open as soon as he got the letter at home; when he looked again
, it was written on the envelope: Mom's name, it turns out that the warning letter was issued to the guardian's mother-in-law. "My child has written a letter. Please read it." He handed it to his mother with both hands.
My mother took the letter with a smile and said, "Good boy."
"What do I think of his letter? Is it horizontal or straight?" he asked again.
"It's Heng, bring it for translation." Sanmao took the letter and read it aloud.
"Dear mother-in-law: Sanmao escaped back to you. I really didn't know she would behave in such a crazy way
. I couldn't bear to leave her very much and chased her to the airport. At that time, she hugged the plane door and refused to come down. I know you
love her, but no matter where this little woman goes, others will be disturbed. I would rather do it myself
< p>I guarded her, and I didn’t want my parents-in-law to suffer because of her return home. Please forgive me. Sanmao fled because I failed to guard her. She was at home today and wanted to come. She is messing around so much, please bear with her and wait until next week.I will write a letter to trick her into coming back to me, so as to alleviate your hard work. When Sanmao left, she didn’t take anything else with her.< /p>
When she left, she left the diamond she used to cut the glass in the drawer, and only took away the pills she took every day and a few boxes of injection medicine. Mom
Mom wanted to know, Sanmao. She has been causing a lot of trouble for the past six months. Not only did she drive into other people, but she also liked to be hospitalized
for surgery. From then on, the doctor asked her to take medicine every day, which made Sanmao very troublesome. She kept clamoring for some food
but I refused to give it to her, just for her health! Thank God, she left and I checked carefully and finally found the medicine she should take. It’s all taken away. Please understand, mother, that if she brings medicine, she will not necessarily take it. If she takes it, she will not change her bad habit and take three days’ worth of medicine in one go. I'm really afraid that she'll behave like this. Please keep an eye on her.
In recent years, Sanmao has suffered from severe amnesia. Please tell her often that I am. My name is Jose, I am your half-son
and her husband. Please remind her three times every day when she goes to bed after taking a bath, so that I can trick her into coming back
Thank you, Mom. No words can express my apology to you. I hope Sanmao won’t cause you too much trouble.
I thought I could tolerate her for a few more years. I didn’t want her to run away on her own. Please. Please bear with this irresponsible wife. Please accept my gratitude.
Enter your son Jose.”
Sanmao finished the translation in one breath. He folded the letter quietly and said: "Come and lie! Come and lie! Let's see if you can cheat me."
At this time, her mother He gave her a loving look and said to her: "Don't get amnesia. He is Jose.
He is your husband. He will stay for a while and then go back!"
"Then It depends on how he deceives his runaway wife." He pursed his lips and smiled, grabbing a handful of pills and chewing them.
After that, messages from Jose warning his runaway wife continued to flow into the mailbox of Sanmao's father's house, and he wanted to take the untied kite back to Africa.
"Sanmao: I am extremely sad about your great escape. Knowing that it will take you three days to fly to Taipei, I can't sleep well day and night. Listening to the radio, I was afraid that news of a plane crash would come. You once told me that every time I went to the desert to work alone, you would wait for me to get on the plane.
I have to listen to the radio all day long, and I can't go to bed without
bad news. At that time, I thought you were inexplicable, but now that you are on the plane, I understand this kind of pain and concern.
I really want you to come back to me, but it’s been a long time since you made up your mind to go home. I can’t be too selfish.
Please feel free to express yourself in Taiwan. language and try to enjoy the warmth of family. I think you can get compensation for what we lack after marriage
in Taiwan. Please stay for a while and then come back to me. I will be waiting for you from today
onwards.
José”
“Sanmao, your letter will take nine days at the earliest to be sent to Africa (if you write it). Today is the second day after you left
I think you are still waiting for the plane in Switzerland. I miss you very much. I haven't eaten anything since you left.
My neighbor Luther sent me a piece of cake. It was last night. I haven't eaten it yet. I have to wait for you to arrive safely
You can only swallow the letter when it comes. You can come back when you see your parents, brothers and sisters. Don’t stay too long
Come back quickly!
José"
"Sanmao: This is the name and time of the medicine you should take every day. I have made a table now, please take it according to the table
Use. You have always been forgetful. When you receive this letter, please trouble your mother again and ask her to remind you to read this memo every day.
The red symbol is the day of your injection. You only take the injection for one month. I hope you will return to Africa in the second month. If you don't come back, I'll go find a doctor right away and write a prescription and send it to you.
Today is the third day since you left. I think you are already home. I actually like to go back with you, but you didn't discuss it with me and ran away, leaving me to suffer here. Please greet your parents, please don’t stay at home
It takes too long to trouble them, come back quickly!
José"
"San Mao: Today I received a telegram from my father from Taipei, saying that you arrived safely. I am very pleased.
I feel relieved after making sure that you are indeed in Taipei. I was always afraid that you would get off the plane in India and go to Kashmir to herd sheep on your own. Thank you for not doing that. I'm very hungry now and have to cook. Thank you
for understanding me and sending me a telegram. Please thank them for me. Jose"
"Sanmao: I finally received your letter today. I was so happy that I left a small note of twenty-five yuan
for the postman in the mailbox. When I opened the letter, I saw that your writing was scrawled and included a lot of Chinese characters. This made me very distressed
I didn’t know who to find to translate the letter.
Today Karl came over to our house from his garden. He patted my arm hard and said to me: 'Congratulations
, you are free. This wife has finally been solved. Yes, women are very troublesome animals. ’
When I heard Karl say this, I really wanted to smash his face. This man is used to being a bachelor, so he understands my blessing.
I bought two dozen eggs today and cooked them in plain water like you did, but they were not as delicious as the ones you made.
I miss you very much. The days without you are extremely quiet and lonely. Come back soon!
Jose"
"Sanmao: You are really a difficult person to deal with. You said that the letters I wrote were all a means to trick you into returning to Africa. This
You have really wronged me. I had known that it would be useless to treat people like you with sweet words, but what I wrote was just what I wanted to say in my heart. There is nothing dishonest or lies. Please don't worry about it. I want to ask you to come back
It is also to give my parents a good rest. Of course, I miss you very much. Please come back after the vacation is over forty days. No
Don't refuse me like this.
I caught another canary today, and we now have three in one ***. A little mouse came to the house,
I fed it cheese every day. The days are so long that it seems like there will never be any news of your coming back. I cleaned the whole house today and pulled the grass from the garden. Now I eat poached eggs with every meal.
Letter!
José"
"Sanmao: Today my neighbor Gary died at the beach. He limped to the beach yesterday at noon. Today
I found out He died on a rock. Now I need to call the police to find the consul from the Swiss Consulate and seal his home immediately.
Sanmao, how unpredictable things are in the world! You were dancing with old Gary last month, but now he is quietly dead. I feel very sad today and have been in a daze all day not knowing what to do. Gary will be buried the day after tomorrow
We will all go there.
Come back soon! I hope to spend the rest of my life quietly sharing with you.
In this short life, we
don’t want to be separated again! Come back quickly! I miss you! Jose"
"Sanmao: You said that people will die when they get old. This is a natural phenomenon. You want me to accept this fact and not
be sad. But I still ask you to come back as soon as possible, because for you, being with your parents and brothers every day certainly makes your life fly by. I am the only one in Africa, and I miss you every day; for example, in your current situation, time is like 'a day in the sky' to you, but to me it is -' Thousands of years in the world, ah, I'm going to be old soon. You ask me what benefits it will bring to me if you come back to Africa. I really can't tell you, but I sincerely ask you to come back. I don’t know how to express my feelings for you. I believe you understand me and have decided on the date to come back? Jose"
"Sanmao: I haven't heard from you for a long time. I've been waiting hard every day. Maybe you are traveling on the Transverse Highway, but you should also be able to send a postcard to the place you travel!
It’s unsettling not to hear from you.
I couldn't sleep all night.
Jose"
"Sanmao:
You are probably going crazy or have amnesia again. Otherwise, there is a strike at the post office somewhere. Why? So
No news from you for a long time? Do you want me to die of anxiety? I miss you!
Jose"
"Sanmao: I called you yesterday to make a direct long-distance call, but you were not at home. Let me do the math
The time difference is, it is already 11:30 Taiwan time, and you are still not here, so I have no choice but to hang up. Sanmao, I haven’t heard from you for many days. Did something happen? I couldn't sleep all night last night.
Write quickly!
José"
"Sanmao: What do you mean by the short note you drew like a ghost?
What does ‘Taiwan is very good’ mean?
Do you want to stay again? Did you forget that your husband is here?
What do you want me to ask you for? The flowers you planted before have all bloomed and withered, and there is no news of your return.
José"
Dozens of letters came from José warning his runaway wife to go home quickly. Sanmao ignored them. Traveling around the mountains and rivers was a great pleasure
. He keeps Africa in his heart, but doesn’t pay much attention to that place, and of course he doesn’t want to go back soon.
José is 100% a good husband and will not commit suicide. Sanmao was very relieved about this incident, so he didn't pay attention to him. "Sanmao: I don't know how long it has been since you left. Yesterday, Karl came to persuade me to go out for a walk. Go into the city with
him. Karl had many friends in the city, all very amiable girls. We drank some beer and watched a show before we came back. It was already late at night. There's nothing bad about being a bachelor, especially when you go home at night and there's no one to talk about. It's such a strange experience. Karl said he would never get married. Now I understand.
A little bit of truth. I haven’t heard from you for a long time. I think you are here in Kinmen. I wish you a happy holiday. Holland
西"
"Sanmao: I didn't expect your letter to come so quickly this time. Going drinking with Karl is nothing serious
Not to mention I only drank a small bottle.
Nordic girls are kind and kind. Didn’t you praise them before?
Thank you for your letter! What a surprise. Jose"
"Sanmao: Let me tell you good news. My neighbor Carlo was painting the house that day, and I went over to help her.
Now she takes the initiative to teach me English. I have started to learn it. I like English very much. Carlo sometimes stayed with me to eat. You know, eating alone is very boring. Carol is the English girl who moved in after you left.
If you still want to live in Taiwan for a while, I agree in principle, and I can endure it for a few more months. Yesterday
I went to play tennis. It was getting hot. Jose"
"Sanmao: You really misunderstood me. Carlo Ken taught me English with complete kindness. We cannot repay kindness
with enmity; you said Carlo She is a bad woman, I think it is completely unjustified. She is very kind and cooks delicious food. She is not a bad woman.
Besides, how did you know that Carlo and I were going to play tennis? I didn’t say that last time!
I'm fine here, come back slowly! Jose"
"Sanmao: After Gary's death, his old house is now for rent. The landlord promised to rent it to us. It is bigger than our current home. We only have to pay more. A thousand dollars, so I'm moving tomorrow. Don't worry that I can't do housework
Carlo is helping hang the curtains now, so you don't have to be in a hurry to come back.
You’ve received a lot of letters recently. What’s going on? Jose"
"Sanmao: You are really a heartless little woman. I forwarded the letter you wrote to Carlo to her without opening it
. She said that you scolded her bloody in the letter, and she felt very wronged. You said you don’t want her to make curtains in your new home, but she is sincerely helping me, as enthusiastic as she is in decorating her own home. How can you
be so small? Family spirit? Of course there is friendship between men and women. You say Carlo is the daughter next door. The beauties in every nude photo in Playboy look like the daughter next door, so I can’t see Carlo again, yours
The inference is ridiculous.
I went to the Peak Restaurant for dinner yesterday and enjoyed it very much.
What about you? What are you doing?
José"
"Sanmao: It would be too much and a waste of your father's stamps for you to write ten letters at once. I don't know
What are you making a noise about? I am living a very peaceful life here.
The new home is almost decorated, but I still need to buy flowers and plants. Carlo said that planting a row of cacti in the window can prevent thieves. I have taken a fancy to some climbing plants. , it has not been decided yet. If the florist can't find them, we
may go to the mountains to dig up some flowers and go camping at the same time.
José"
"Sanmao: You said you wanted to break Carlo's head, which surprised me. She is a very smart girl,
You can't hit her on the head. Besides, why wouldn't you be grateful to someone who takes care of your husband on your behalf? We only went up the mountain to find wild flowers and plant them back. Don't make a fuss.
You said Gary is your friend, and now I live in his house, and his ghost will help you watch over me
. This is really another chapter of a strange story. I have done nothing to apologize to you. What is even more strange is that why would you come up with a ghost to scare me?
Caro is not afraid of ghosts at all, she asked me to tell you.
How are you?
José"
"Sanmao: I didn't notice that in my last letter I referred to Carlo and I as -'we', I think
You are too thoughtful, so you can see it more clearly. This is not a big deal and I don’t need to explain anything.
You have received a lot of letters recently, which makes me a little impatient. I have no idea what you are doing, but it is unfair to report to you everything I am doing
in detail.
I'm fine. Are you OK?
Jose"
"Sanmao: I can forgive you if you don't want to write a letter. I will leave for the northern end of the island for a week's vacation next week.
, even if you write a letter, I won’t receive it.
The weather is hot, which is a good day for swimming. Carlo said that there are many bathing beaches in Taiwan. I think she read about them in books. We have a good life here. Have you gone swimming too?
José"
"Sanmao:
When I came back from my trip, I saw your telegram. You suddenly decided to fly back, which surprised me. Why
You ignored me when I begged you so hard, but now you are willing to come back? Anyway, I was so happy that I almost screamed. Over the past few decades, I have almost gone crazy eating eggs every day. You have no sympathy and have ignored my situation. Of course I know that it is not a simple matter for a fugitive wife to return home; what's more, your motive for fleeing is not to run away in anger, but to go home and have fun, which makes it even more impossible to return
p>
I am getting excited because I heard that Taiwan is very fun.
I wanted to touch you with love when you left. Maybe you would come back to my arms in tears and become my nagging wife again
But the method I used was wrong. You almost forgot about me, and you didn’t pay much attention to my letter.
Carl came to see me that day. He said to me, your Chinese Confucius said that all villains and
women in this world are difficult to raise. Well, they will look down on you, and if you alienate them, they will complain again and again.
I heard Carl say this, and when I thought about it more carefully, I realized that you are indeed the kind of person Confucius said, so I made up the story about my neighbor Carlo just to use it as a metaphor. The method of stimulating generals will irritate you back. Now it has been proven to be very effective, I am really
overjoyed.
The only thing that worries me is that you may not believe the explanation in my letter, thinking that I am really being cared for by Carlo and going on vacation with her. .
In fact, there is no one named Carlo! I had no choice but to use this method
to trick you back. This is indeed not what a gentleman does, but if you don’t use this method, you will ignore me
!
You said in the telegram that you would come back and fight with me. You are welcome to come.
The curtains of the new home have not been put up, the flowers and plants have not been planted, everything is waiting for you to come back and run it.
Please tell your parents-in-law that I have completed my mission and deceived you back. In case you believe that what I said above
are true, you may not be willing to come back to Africa because I exposed your lies, so you can rest assured
Come down, don't come and fight hard.
If that’s the case, there’s nothing wrong with it, because Carlo and I are going diving together! Are you coming back
or not? Hugs to you, your faithful husband Jose”
